April 2026 All Guilds Meeting Summary
Here is the summary for the 192nd All Guilds Meeting, moderated by PodHopper, along with the raw and cleansed chatlogs!
Contents
Mysterium
☛ Registration is now open: admission only is $30, while admission + shirt is $50. Premium registration, pin, and shirt sales will end on May 24; after that, standard registration will increase to $35 and remain open until July 1. After July 1 swag will no longer be available to pre-order; swag and registration will be available on-site as stock and capacity permits.
☛ For this year’s shirt, the front artwork is done by Drea and Kelly, while the back artwork is done by Drea and Ace. Suncatchers, lanyard charms and Haven themed stickers will be available as well.
☛ The Creativity Prompt for April–May is “Sunset“. There was only one entry for the “Sunrise” prompt for February–March, from Talashar.
OpenUru
☛ Phase 1 of Descent is locked down fairly well. The area has been handed to Tweek, for his own review of lighting and detail touch-ups. Marker missions in Descent should still be playable after the update.
Regarding Nexus access, there have been some hiccups in activating the terminals, as currently they may register a completely wrong location. In any case, Nexus registration will likely be left disabled on Phase 1.
Descent will be released as a public area. It’s unclear at this time whether there will be private or hood instances.
☛ Quite a few other Ages are in the works are in the back-burner, at various levels of progress; the complete list has been recently updated.
Events in the Cavern

D’ni Language Classes
Shokhootahn Rehn had two updates, one for the D’ni Language Classes and one for the Story Nights.
Visitors are asked to not post pellet points into the hood imager: one of his former students and a close friend, Yutiel Yoshi, who passed away in 2018, is listed there. He has refrained from posting pellets to maintain her name at the top, as a form of memorial.
D’ni Language Classes schedule (click to expand)
- Those who would like to attend the lessons should contact Rehn, preferably on Discord (r’Tayrtahn#1317), or via KImail (#80428). Be sure to include your KI number, so that Rehn can send you a reply!
- The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session. Classes are individual.
- Evening openings are on Monday to Thursday, at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KIT, depending on the student’s schedule.
- Daytime openings are on Monday to Friday, at 10:00, 11:00 or 12:00 KIT, depending on the student’s schedule.
- Daytime availability is subject to change with little or no notice. Last-minute changes to class times will be announced via Magic Bot (#27527) or Mimi Bot (#71459); to be notified, add both as buddies, then PM them “advert”.
R’Tayrtahn’s Story Nights
Story Night Europe and Original Story Night have recently completed the stories from Myst: The Book of D’ni, and will soon begin those from Myst III: Exile. Eventually they cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D’ni.
R’Tayrtahn records videos of the sessions (via an avatar named “I’m a bot, do not message”), that he will eventually upload to his YouTube channel. Be careful if you PM r’Tay or the bot during the events, as messages will be visible in the videos.
Videos now also come with auto translated captions in French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese and Spanish. Automatic translation often has trouble with words like “DRC” or “linking books”, so your mileage may vary.
Story Nights schedule (click to expand)
- Story Nights are held in Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday, gathering at the fountain at around 23:00 KIT, with the story starting at about 23:30 KIT.
- For Story Nights – Europe, the gatherings are on Saturday starting at 13:30 KIT, with the story starting at about 14:00 KIT.
- On All Guilds Meeting days, the event will begin at 14:30 KIT or 30 minutes after the meeting, whichever is later.
- The stories are told using voice chat, so you will need to have your speakers, headphones or KI devices on. If you would like a reminder, please send r’Tayrtahn (#58324) a KImail with your KI number included in the text, so that he can add you to his buddies list.
That was it for this month. Please consider donating to keep the Cavern open!
The next All Guilds Meeting is planned for Saturday, May 2, 2026 (Leefo 10, 9682) at 13:00 KIT.
Until then!
